The daily Airbus A380 service between Nice and Dubai will start on 1st July 2017, just in time for the beginning of the summer holiday season.
Nice becomes Emirates’ second destination, after Paris, in France to welcome the iconic double decker, further stimulating demand for travel to the region. Switching from a Boeing 777-300ER to an A380 will result in a 44% increase in capacity on the route.
"Emirates started flying to Nice on 15th July 1994, almost 23 years ago. Since then, almost two million passengers have travelled with us on the route, with over 200,000 last year alone. We’re excited to see the city join the other 46 destinations Emirates currently serves with the A380 and look forward to being the first airline to fly this iconic aircraft to Nice," commented Thierry Antinori, Emirates’ Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer.
Travelling to Monaco? As part of its commitment to offering the best travel experience to its passengers, Emirates will offer helicopter transfers between Nice Airport and Monaco, including a limousine service from Monaco’s heliport to their final destination. The service will be complimentary to First Class passengers, €79 per passenger for Business Class and €109 per passenger for Economy Class.
